As Malala Yousafzai eloquently stated, education is the best weapon through which we can fight poverty. If these helpless children are educated, they will be able to help themselves, their families, and their country move towards a brighter future. We, as young Bangladeshi individuals who have been given the opportunity to prioritize our education over everything, have a duty to give back. We have never had to worry about our health and wellbeing growing up. We have never had to wonder when our next meal will be. Let’s speak up and raise awareness of the prevalence of child labor in Bangladesh. We cannot stop until the burden of every child is alleviated. Let’s work together to push for a better future for these youth. I humbly urge you to support DCI’s mission to provide educational programs for these bright and capable children. End child labor today for a stronger nation tomorrow.
